Jade Bead Strand

Round green beads, evenly sized, curled up on a thin green cord.

This is a jade bead strand. Jade is a name applied to two different stones, nephrite and jadeite, both prized for toughness and for a smooth, slightly waxy polish. Loop of smooth spherical beads in deep forest and olive green, with faint cloudy mottling and a soft polish. A fine green cord threads through and trails in loose, tangled ends at both sides.

Green and glossy, and tidier than most necklaces ever are.
